FOTD - Subtle and Neutral Smokey Look ft Circle Lenses

Hey lovelies,

I know I haven't really been a good blogger lately, with 1 post a week. I shall not bore you with another I-am-so-busy-excuse and lets get started. For those of you who have been following my blog/twitter would of known that I have started full time work about a month ago. That being said, I have became less creative with my eye make up because firstly, it doesn't look too professional to rock up to work with an epic smokey eyes or something like a colourful peacock eyesand secondly, I just couldn't be bothered thinking which colour goes well with which early in the morning.

That probably explains why the NYX eyeshadow trio below (TS03) has been my favourite/on-the-go eyeshadows lately. It has all the colours you need to to create a subtle, neutral smokey look and it's super inexpensive too! I got mine fromCherryCulture. =)

L - R: Nude, Taupe and DarkBrown

As you can see from the palette, there are some fall outs and Taupe is the chalkiest of all. I have heard some reviews about how the trios aren't as good as NYX Single Eyeshadows. Gotta agree with that but I still love trio of mine!

Nude - Taupe - DarkBrown

I always use nude as a highlight colour, taupe as all over my lid colour and dark brown on my crease and outer V. It's all about blending baby, to create the perfect look!

Also, I have FINALLY received my EOS circle lenses from MUKUCHU on Monday. This is my FIRST ever circle lenses with the right power as I have relatively high astigmatism compared to most people. For those of you who have the same problem as me, fret no more!MUKUCHU has a whole new range of circle TORIC lenses.

Close Up

As you can see, it doesn't make THAT much of a difference as my original eye colour is dark brown. My first impression after putting them on is - I look much more animated. I will write up a more detailed review in the next couple of days or so as I have been wearing them everyday since then.

DISCLAIMER: Circle Lenses were sent to me by MUKUCHU. I am not affiliated with them nor am I getting paid to write this post. * MAC Pro Long Wear Concealer was given to me by SASSISAM for review purposes and *Illamasqua Powdered Metal in ETHER was in my gift bag from Illamasqua Art of Darkness Launch Party.
